However, I have the upgraded Pro-Ject Debut Carbon Esprit SB and I think it is a fine turntable for the price. I believe it is $599 retail. In addition to the regular Debut Carbon features, it offers an acrylic platter and electronic speed box. Mine is in the Ferrari Red and I think it looks fantastic. It's not perfect, but I think it competes well with anything in it's price range.

Let us know what you think once you've had a chance to set it up and take a listen. If it's new, the cartridge might need a bit of break-in. I think my Ortofon 2M Red took about 10-20 hours playing time to open up.
